    WNBA Mock Draft Round 1: Who Should Toronto Tempo Take at 6/7? | Set the Tempo Ep. 2

    In Episode 2 of Set the Tempo, host Tyler Conium runs through Round 1 of the latest ESPN WNBA Mock Draft and breaks down what it could mean for the Toronto Tempo’s first-ever draft selection—with Toronto and Portland projected to pick 6th and 7th (coin flip). With the WNBA CBA still looming over the offseason (no expansion draft, no free agency yet), Tyler shifts the focus to what we can talk about right now: draft projections, prospect fits, and how Toronto can build a foundation fast. 🏀 What’s inside: * Why the CBA delay is slowing everything: expansion draft, free agency, roster building * Round 1 mock draft walkthrough + quick scouting notes * Projected No. 1: UConn guard Azzi Fudd and what she brings * Key lottery names: Olivia Miles, Lauren Betts, Flau’jae Johnson * Expansion context: why Toronto/Portland are stuck outside the top 5 * Toronto Tempo range (6/7): early fit talk + building around a scoring wing * International talent trend + why Spain/France prospects are popping in mocks * What Tyler wants next: CBA resolution → expansion draft → free agency → real Toronto-specific roster talk ⏭️ Next episode: More draft + Tempo roster direction as we get closer to March Madness—assuming the CBA doesn’t drop another bomb. 🎧 Subscribe on Spotify / Apple Podcasts and follow Tyler on socials: @TylerConium This is a public episode.

    Welcome to Set the Tempo, a Toronto Tempo–focused WNBA podcast hosted by Tyler Conium.
